Branch restrictions in Stash

Vijay kumar12

We have recently started working on Stash and currently evaluating how we can restrict write access on branches in a GIT repositories using Stash. Using the Branch Permission option in Stash, we added only certain users to have write access to the Branch...but surprisingly, even after such a setting, all users are able to push their changes to this branch. Are we missing something here ?

Note: We are having v3.3.1 Stash instance for evaluation.

Vijay,

If you are specifically looking for Branch permission options I'd recommend upgrade to at least Stash 3.10 because there is a significant change towards this in the release. Please see the release notes for more information. I hope that helps.

That seems very odd. Maybe include a screenshot of your branch settings screen? If you've set them up correctly, then people not on the list should not be able to push to that branch.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your advise. We did upgrade our stash instance to 3.11.2. Again there, I see that a developer for whom is not on the list of valid users with write access to a branch (in our case master branch) is able to push the changes to this restricted branch. Is there any how, i can check what is happening behind the scene so that I can decipher this issue.
